When I write about travel, it’s usually from the couples or solo traveler perspective. But I also love traveling with my six-year-old daughter. Let’s be honest, though, traveling with her means that my priorities change, a lot. I always try to make sure that I take her places that are immersive and fun for her age range. And of course, other factors like safety, kid-friendly excursions, and a wider range of kid-friendly food options matter — because my daughter is firmly in her chicken tenders era.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports that heart disease is the leading cause of death in the United States, and it affects millions of people each year. Meanwhile the American Heart Association (AHA) points out that for Black adults, the risk of heart disease is even higher due to factors such as high blood pressure, diabetes and limited access to healthy food options.

When you have diabetes, eating sweets can be like navigating a minefield. While low-sugar substitutes do exist for ice creams, cakes and all kinds of confections, moderation is usually the best strategy. As a diabetic, being mindful of sugar intake can be the difference between experiencing harmful blood sugar spikes, or keeping your condition well-managed. But just because you’re a diabetic doesn’t mean you need to entirely shun sugar and never enjoy a sweet treat again in your life.

A Crock Pot, also known as a slow cooker, is a fantastic way to make flavorful foods with minimal effort – especially soups and chilis. If you or someone you’re breaking bread with has diabetes, making homemade soup in a Crock Pot allows for better ingredient control which can help to maintain stable blood sugar levels.

wild I’ve been on hold for almost 2 hrs with @allegiant just to try to add my TSA precheck to a reservation after checking in because website & app don’t allow me to add to my reservation. Never this difficult with major airlines. 😡
